lookin good, if your still running your stock air box check the screws to make sure its not sucking in through there. i used to use alot of white lithium grease to help it seal up.

nope, the stock airbox in somewhere in my yard with other parts from other trucks...got the TYMAR look-a-like. gona pick up the new baldwin filter next week. only like 34$$ there. i was thinkin about getting a pre-cleaner for the filter...not as a more filter use, but jsut to kinda dress it up a little bit. dunno, gonna give it a few more weeks of thinkin about it. see if it still tickles me...
